Embody
Love in Action at the fifth annual

ahimsa and the ways in which yoga, mindfulness and social justice are intertwined.

Commuter rates are available to pass holders who are staying off-site. Kama'aina rates are available for on or off-site participation with a valid state-issued Hawaii ID.

Join Vijay and friends for an evening of call and response, Mantra and music.
Vijay Krsna studied devotional Indian folk music known as "Kirtan" in the sacred village of Vrindavana, India. This rare traditional art form is an ancient call-and-response mantra chanting practice, that originated in the Indian subcontinent over 5000 years ago. Vijay formed the band Kirtaniyas in 2009. They have travelled the world to over 15 countries infusing new life to these ancient chants with youthful spirit and energy.

Laird Hamilton is perhaps the greatest big wave surfer of all time, a living legend who has tamed some of the world's mightiest waves. Amongst the surf community, he is also one of the most controversial figures, and innovator who has revolutionized the sport often to the dismay of purists. This thrilling, up-close portrait traces Hamilton's remarkable journey, from his rebellious childhood in Hawai'i to his fearless first forays into surfing to his relentless pursuit of ever-bigger waves, a quest that ultimately led him to conquer what's been called "the heaviest wave ever ridden."
